LVMH Buys 15,016,000 Shares of Hermes!

Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy (LVMH) recently bought 15,016,000 shares of luxury brand Hermes. This means that LVMH now owns 14.2% of the company and LVMH is claiming that its goal is not to take over the company or to sit on its Board but instead to just be a part of the iconic brand. Hmm...there's just something about that that makes me think Hermes will sometime become a part of LVMH. Which really should come as no surprise seeing as how they own about a million other companies, such as;
Moet
Dom Perignon
Hennessy
Fendi
Donna Karan
Givenchy
Louis Vuitton
Marc Jacobs
Thomas Pink
Parfums Christian Dior
Tag Heuer
Sephora
ETC.
It's only a matter of time!
P.S. Hermes is pronounced. AIR-MEZ
